There are a number of the paradoxes of the contemporary market
of the Italian glass art, for example, while the pieces of limited
production are often sold (not just in auctions) at very high
prices just because designed (not built) by names that are trendy,
works that are important singular pieces created by real artists
often remain in a corner.

Another example: collectors seem to completely ignore the
contemporary and remain anchored to few names - always the same
ones - of furnaces, authors and works.

Not everyone is like that. To realize the true value of it, it's
worth a visit to the selection of the private collection
Bellini-Pezzoli: attentive, curious and
prophetic, almost unique in Italy and of high value
internationally, open from November 18 to late January at
the Museo Bagatti
Valsecchi (via Gesu' 5) in Milan.

The overview offered covers a span of recent years, since 1960,
ranging from Murano production to areas far more remote, the United
States or Australia. All set for art in extraordinary kitchens of
Bagatti Valsecchi. A true small journey between ideas that
become shapes and colors that will surprise many.
